ABOUT HEARTS OF GOLD
For businesses that want to give back.
Launched in 2023 by HeartBrothers Patient Board of Advisors Member Tommy Hardiman, the HeartBrothers Foundation's Hearts of Gold Club invites exceptional businesses wanting to financially support New England Heart Failure patients and families.
To date, Hearts of Gold has raised over $50,000 for this cause.
WHY JOIN HEARTS OF GOLD
For businesses that want to give back.
Did you know the average heart transplant costs $1.4 million? Yet the average annual HF patient income is $50,000. Through our Patient & Family Education & Support Programs, the HeartBrothers Foundation (HBF) provides financial assistance, emotional support, and education to families struggling with HF. Every day, patients & families inundate HBF with requests for financial assistance. The pandemic has made patients’ situations even more tenuous as they are highly vulnerable to infection, and their financial strains have increased. HBF fills that void by offering support packages for lodging, food, transport, parking, and critical travel expenses as patients visit clinics or family members stay near those hospitalized. Families submit requests ranging from $250-$4,000. Requests are need-based, and we thoroughly vet each one. Over 90% of financial assistance from HBF goes to HF patients with annual income below $50,000, and approximately half of this supported community is Black or LatinX.

The need for support remains ever-increasing—an endless ocean of families grappling with fear of loss and an encroaching monetary stranglehold. Life with HF is all-consuming for everyone involved and we are dedicated to easing this burden.
We invite you to help ease the burden by joining
the HeartBrothers Foundation Hearts of Gold Club.
